[ANN][bitfrog] BFS client beta release | Decentralized Autonomous Game

[tadpole_bitfrog]

Launch date: July 12 2014 - 1000GMT

Overview:
 
BFS (bitfrog share) is issued to give bitfroggers the right to hunt transaction fee on bitfrog. It is neither a currency nor alt-coins and it will not be used as currencies on bitfrog. It is a ticket for bitfroggers to capture transaction fee hunting opportunity of transactions process on our platform.
As bitfrog is developed according to Proof of Stake model, chances for hunting transaction fee is calculated based on the amount of shares owned by bitfrogger, which means more shares on hand, more transaction fee you can hunt.
We are currently running a 4 stages donation campaign for you to obtain BFS through donating bitcoin. The amount of the BFS will be prorated over donators based on the total donation and the issued shares within the same stage.

Source code?  I'd be interested in taking a look at this, but I only run linux.

Hi HunterMinerCrafter,
 
Thanks for your interest in our project. The linux version of bitfrog.io BFS client beta release will be available on the coming Sat.
 
At this moment, we decided to post source code of BFS in github when BFT beta is released.

I'll look forward to it.

Edit: wait, was this meant to imply that you'll be releasing a bfs Linux binary but not source?  This will likely do me no good, as I use an unusual libc, so I will really need to build it myself.

Our source code of BFS will be released together with our BFT client, the estimated release date of BFT is late August and we will make an announcement one week in advance for the official release. Please keep an eye on our announcement.

As expected, I can not run the linux client because it is linked against wrong dynamic libraries.

You really need to release source ASAP both so that people are able to run the client on any platform, and so that builds can be independently verified as not containing any backdoor/malware/etc.
